My bad. I thought this was a thread devoted to the 2021 Milwaukee Brewers. 
My team, the team I have followed passionately since 1978, 50 games into the 2021 season, nearly 1/3 of the season played, is batting .209. The team's collective OPS+ is 80, meaning their .649 OPS is 20% below National League average.
To put this in perspective: the Brewers were born in 1970, after moving from Seattle, where the Pilots were an expansion team in 1969.
This is the 53rd season of Milwaukee Brewer baseball. The Brewers have historically had some real powerhouse offenses, and haven't been able to develop starting pitchers worth a damn. Now, we have two of the best starting pitchers in baseball in Brandon Woodruff and Corbin Burnes, and can't hit worth a lick.
That .649 OPS is the third worst in team history.
2021 .649 OPS, NL average .701 (-0.52) 80 OPS+
1971 .633 OPS, AL average .681 (-0.48) 81 OPS+
1972 .629 OPS, AL average .649 (-0.20) 90 OPS+
Relative to league average, however, this is the worst offense in the 53 year history of the Milwaukee Brewers.
But I remain hopeful!
